The reasoning steps for finding the direction of an induced current from a changing magnetic flux.

by @openstemUpdated Physics
🧲 Something changes the flux through a loopIs flux increasing or decreasing?Induced current must create an opposing fieldInduced current must reinforce the fading fieldApply the right-hand rule to the opposing field directionApply the right-hand rule to the reinforcing field direction✅ Read off the induced current's direction around the loopIncreasingDecreasing
